Haliburton was the 12th pick in the 2020 NBA Draft (out of Iowa State).

Before getting traded to the Pacers, he spent the first one and half seasons of his career with the Sacramento Kings.

There is “real concern” from the Pacers about Tyrese Haliburton’s availability and potential impact the remainder of the Eastern Conference Finals, per @wojespn.

Haliburton will do everything he can to play against the Celtics, but it’s a very likely scenario he will be nowhere… pic.twitter.com/JnitmFqFWi
